Jackson Barracks #2: M60A0 & M42 Duster
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

By popular request... Didnt find anything on the tow lugs - they seemed well painted over, but found this on the rear deck: 369 M42 Duster - unusual to see the turret traversed over the rear deck... BTW, here's a pic of the erstwhile museum... Neil

Sorry, no, I dont often do that - plus I was trying to avoid the layers of Katrina surge left on the vehicles to be completely honest... Neil

- Neil_Baumgardner M42 Duster - unusual to see the turret traversed over the rear deck... Neil Even more unusual is to see it still has it's spare barrels on the sponson. Only seen one other with them, and it's in Hue, Vietnam.

Joe, some of us more so than others, ME! are prone to find that this vehicles are already inhabited!! If there is a beehive or wasp nest any where on that vehicle I usually find it... curiousity always killed the cat! SR
